after Gershwin’s song from Porgy and Bess
—
Summertime
and the cost of livin’ ain’t easy
Bills are jumpin’
and prices are high
Oh, the bosses are rich
and the workers are strugglin’
But hush, little baby
don’t you cry
One of these mornin’s,
you’re going to wake up strikin’
Spread the action,
raise the union flag high
Until that mornin’,
we’re preparing the pickets
Your workmates and comrades standin’ by
